As maybe has been mentioned in here, but it's worth highlighting, the lift spindles will be way easier to install also.

my god, SOOO much easier. Ok here's another story, My dad and I rented a Vatozone spring compressor (POS) and we were compressing the spring and the plate slipped and... well... long story short, my dad fractured his thumb when that happened So we made a $40 investment and bought one with those claws on both ends...

I feel your pain! I drove all around town trying to find that style and nowhere in town had one in stock. Had to order it online and wait a couple of days. Even with that compressor it was a PITA to get in there.

Nice! And that should be perfect save money by buying the individual parts instead of a kit

Won't even need to touch the springs. Now, you may want to decide if your other suspension components need replacing while you're in there.
